About the Artist
Charlie Adams was born in 1953 in an igloo on Christmas eve, and was living about 5 miles from Inukjuak formerly Port Harrison, when he started school. In 1965 his family moved to Povugnituk where he completed secondary, then moved to Churchill, Manitoba to do his high school. He started singing and playing quitar at the same time he finished high school in 1973. After high school he started his first band in Povugnituk called Sikumiut (People of the ice) and started performing every friday night, then in 1976 he moved back to Inukjuak and started a new band there. From that moment on he started writing songs about the Inuit's way of life, history, Inuit legends, and today's way of life.This was important because, the Inuit legends, stories and traditional way of life was not being told to the younger generation. Since this moment to date he has performed across North America and Europe with a special meeting and performance for Queen Juliana of Holland. Charlie is also married and has five children.

Product Description
One of the all-time hit songs from Nunavik is back in as the title track of a new CD from Charlie Adams. "Quviasupunga", which means "I'm happy" in Inuktitut is presented in two versions on the new disk. Charlie's voice is in fine form throughout the 13 tracks. Some of his classics have been rerecorded here, as well as some new songs. There is hit potential written all over songs such as "Aulaajingnatit" (Don't You Remember), "Anararumalinpunga" (I'm Homesick), and especially "Upingaami" (Springtime) with its beautiful, soaring chorus. The style is folk rock, sung in Inuktitut, with some nice touches of acoustic guitar, a bit of country on "Unikapung" (I'm Telling a Story), and some harder rock sounds.
